How Green Was My Valley (1941)
The Story
John Ford swapped America's wild west for the verdant valleys of Wales for this Oscar-winning saga of the region's descent from paradise to slagheap. The movie follows the story of Huw (Roddy McDowall) - the youngest of seven children - and his struggle as the unrelenting march of industrialisation take their toll on the family. Though always remembered as the film that best Citizen Kane to the Best Picture Oscar, it is quite simply, a classic - and as relevant now as it was back in 1941.
